It's like Obama is your fairy godfather who heard your cries and has now taken all those expenses and turned them into a beautiful gown and chariot to the Ball and Prince Free Contraception's palace.Ian Carsiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00855070478280302665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2984725853480234627.post-35384564124403855302011-08-05T11:57:18.735-07:002011-08-05T11:57:18.735-07:00I still can't get over just how good this news...I still can't get over just how good this news is. And the fact that it's coming at a time when so many state legislators are pushing back (often unconstitutionally) against the rights of women to birth control and abortions means it's inevitably going to really stick in the craw of the anti-woman right.<br /><br />The thing that I love the most about that Bill Oh Really quote is that it also reflects that he has absolutely zero understanding about how women's contraception works. He literally thinks you take the pill like you use a condom, which is so ignorant it's almost cute in a really infantile way.<br /><br />What's worse about Sandy Rios's statements isn't just that he ignorance is so self-reflexively sexist; she's so classist about it, too. She's wealthy enough that she can easily afford every single one of the things that Obamacare covers. But if you can't afford it, it's your fault for being a lazy welfare whore who is also asking for it.Ian Carsiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00855070478280302665noreply@blogger.com
